The West is signing its own death sentence
In defiance of the free market’s proven success in eradicating poverty, America and most of the rest of Western Civ continue on their jaunty way to self-destruction. What irony and stupidity for humans to believe that their successful attainment of mass prosperity via dynamic capitalism is but a prelude (not an end) on the road to progress, the next step being a “perfect” centrally planned utopia. A corrupted populace bought off by entitlements and ”free” basic services is at fault, not the power-hungry demagogues seducing the masses with the old deadly siren song of socialism.
Clearly!
